ART BOOK CArt

Crooked Zipper has created a mobile tool, Art Book Cart (ABC), to engage communities with literature through art. ABC was created as a hands-on alternative to traditional book clubs. We believe literacy can and should be fun and engaging. 

Groups who hire the services of ABC choose a book or book series, and we organize an event which includes hands-on arts and literacy projects, discussion questions, and extension activities based on the book or series. 

Groups can also host book art events events where ABC leads hands-on activities utilizing damaged books to make new paper, prints, envelopes, and folded book art. 

Excellent for youth and adult book clubs, school/organization literacy nights, library events, art making events, and festivals.
